Lymphatic Drainage Is Proven To Be Highly Beneficial After Childbirth
While post-op lymphatic drainage is typically associated with cosmetic surgery, it is also highly beneficial for c-section aftercare. And - even those who gave birth without surgical intervention can benefit from MLD.
MLD is not only proven to reduce swelling, but also reduces fatigue, improves skin, normalizes milk flow, reduces pain/discomfort, and soothes anxiety by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system.
Lymphatic Drainage is extremely beneficial to healing after birth, especially with cesarean sections. Pain, swelling, and overall aesthetic appearance can be greatly improved with proper compression and MLD with a therapist specializing in post-op massage.
